Let's start thinking Valentine's Day...My second favorite day!! (after Christmas)!! Valentine's Day is a perfect ATC crafting time!!
*********************************************************************

The cards and holders I have received:

Group I
Nancy
CeeJay The way the groups were formed is the order
Mary F. in which I received the cards each day.
Michelle
Maddie
Beth
Jill
Connie
Teresa
Sherry

Group II
Shelly
Terri
Annemary
Debbie H
Catherine
Michelle
Anne Erickson


*********************************************************************

OK, Here goes....We will make 10 atc's with the Valentine theme....
If more than 10 sign up, they will form group 2...and so on...Only 10 ATC's will be made by one person....Now the twist, You will create one display form for your ATC. It can be a decorated spool, a child's block, anything that can be made to display one ATC at a time. If you use a spool, you can glue a piece of wire (like a photo holder) to the inside of the spool to create a way of displaying your favorite atc of the day..you can also use the plastic name card holder that comes in flowers that someone sends you way..Remember?

This will make the ATC's a little different and fun! The idea of the display came from our altered spool swap via Maddie!!

At the end of the swap, you will send the atc's plus display to me.
Please include 7 stamps...I will separate and send back to you 10 atc's and a display. This should be a fun, new way to do our ATC's!!

Sign up ends January 12th, you can go ahead and make 10 cards..
and be thinking of your display!
Mail out back to me, NO LATER than January 22..........
This will give folks time to enjoy their Valentine Creations!!
Remember it isn't fair to make folks wait on you!!

Have fun crafting and finding just the right things for your cards!!
Smiles, Beth

You can never be to kind!

Question for ya! I've started my ATC's but was wondering if we have say 15 signed up, will we make 15 of them or will there still be two groups, one group of ten and another group of five? Just want to make sure I create enough up front. Thanks!

Have a good day!

What I think we will do is just make 10, each person....then we will keep grouping by 10's. If it is not an even number signed up we could divide the last group to make a sub-group. That doesn't sound real clear, but you will not need more that 10 cards... HOpe this helps...Smiles, Beth

Hi CJ!!!

While sitting here creating, I've gone ahead and made 20 of them. Beth, please put me in for up to 20 ATC's. If I don't use them all, no problem, but at least I've got myself covered.

Have a good day!
